Quote:Canon law does trump civil law
Well actually, in fact, it does not,except in the self-serving opinion of the church. Not in my country or in ANY country of which I''m aware.
Quote:they RARELY ever come into conflict unless a government is explicitly trying to suppress Catholicism,
So what? 'Rarely 'is enough, as the obscenity of the child abuse scandal has shown.
The Church also claims it's above law with "the seal of confession", having no obligation to report ANY confessed crime to the civil authorities. To most non Catholics, such a claim is arrogant nonsense and should not be tolerated..
Quote:it's not the same thing as criminal law, and ecclesiastical trials are separate from criminal trials.
That is lie of half truth .
Yes, eccesliastical trials are separate from civil trials.However, they are also often INSTEAD of civil trials. If that was not the case, the scandal of CENTURIES of child abuse by clergy could never have occurred.
By all means show a shared moral bankruptcy with your church,as you continue to defend the indefensible.
